Vertex Shader 2.0
Pixel Shader 2.0
16x MSAA
Seems like it has 8 pipelines
Remember what the KyroII did for bandwidth efficiency.....
Well, should have enough power for 16X MSAA with better quality than FAA.
Now all it needs is drivers (S3/VIA)...(hehe)...Let us return to the moon, to stay!!!

Anyways, it is good to see that another developer jumps on the high-end(?) graphics market again, I wish that PowerVR would actually release their new chip too in the next year, then we would have nVidia, ATI, S3, Matrox(?), and PowerVR.Specs:
MSI 745 Ultra :: AMD Athlon XP 2000+ :: 1024 MB PC-266 DDR-RAM :: HIS Radeon 9700 (Catalyst 3.1) :: Creative Soundblaster Live! 1024 :: Pioneer DVD-106S :: Western Digital WD800BB :: IBM IC35L040AVVN07
